Small Steps

We met
we talked.
You told me things for my ears only.
I didn't know I was lonely
until then.
You spoke of hope
you raised my profile
made me feel mobile.
Back then,I was so vile
as I took it all
giving nothing.
I give today,
for one day only
so now Im not lonely
I have you.
One day at a time.
